Custom patches and chevrons

Currently, many public organizations, sports sections, school squads and interest clubs order special badges for their members, by which people around them can find out about a person’s belonging to a particular group. Chevrons are also in demand in the military sphere. Thanks to this patch, you can find out which troops a soldier belongs to.

Patches can be placed where it is impossible to use other methods of imprinting. Chevrons can be easily and firmly attached to various types of fabric, even in the most problematic parts of clothing, such as flaps or pockets.

To date, there are several ways to fasten chevrons to order:

• sewing on,
• gluing,
• removable mount.

The first method is suitable for working with the finished product. The patch can be placed on the sleeve or in any other area where there is access for machine stitching. In cases where the chevron cannot be sewn on, thermal fastening is used. The patch can also be made removable. Velcro is perfect for these purposes. Each of these methods has its own advantages and disadvantages.

High quality bespoke patch

The most popular method of attaching patches and chevrons to order is sewing. This method is used in the military sphere to firmly fix the decals on the pockets and sleeves of the uniform.

Machine stitching is perfect for this task. Usually it is done when the lining has not yet been sewn to the product. With the help of the machine, you will be able to attach the patch qualitatively and reliably, while the fabric will not be pulled together, and the chevron will not be damaged. In some situations, this method is combined with gluing. In cases where the patch needs to be sewn to the finished garment, then first the upper fabric is fixed with its lining, and the patch is sewn through. This procedure must be performed by an experienced and competent specialist so that tissue distortion does not occur. Otherwise, the product will be damaged and will have to be thrown away.

For the manufacture of chevrons to order by gluing, you must use hot-melt adhesive or thermal tape. To ensure the durability of this technology, it is necessary to work on special equipment. The presses that are used in the industry allow you to glue the chevron not only to the cut, but also to the finished garment. Thus, thermal bonding can be used at any stage of product production. You can glue this type of product not once, but several times, as far as its basis allows.

A very popular method of attaching patches with adhesive tape. One part of the Velcro tape is sewn to the chevron itself, the other to the clothes. The patch can be removed at any time, which is very convenient when you need to wash clothes. You can also change the chevrons regularly, as long as they are the same size.
